Though I've only played PFS once so far (I'm new) I did get the opportunity to feel sort of 'epic' in my first session.
We were playing 'The Confirmation' and I was playing Pfeiffer, Level 1 Gnome Barbarian. At the end of the adventure, the 'Big Bad' is on one side of a river and we are on another. I begin running over to engage and so does the monster, and we end up meeting on a rickety bridge.
One of the party blinds the bad guy, which forces him to fail his charge with the 50% chance to miss. Fortunately for me, his charge provokes an attack-of-opportunity, in-which I rolled a nat 20. (Huzzah!)
I confirmed the crit, and ended up doing like 26pts of damage and then rolling for my actual turn (the boss was last initiative, I was first). I swing again and kill the boss - feeling pretty dang satisfied.
I've played a lot of RPGs (D&D since I was kid, WoW, etc.) but it was nice being the lucky newbie for once!
